Check if VI is a control (.ctl)

Given an array of VI references, is there a method to determine which VIs are actually controls (.ctl files)?  (Other than getting the path and checking that the file extension is .ctl.  I was hoping for a more direct way.  )
Thanks,
Joel

If you already have a VI reference, you can read the "VI Type" property and see if it is equal to "Control VI".

    there is no sound on my macbook air. I have checked the volume and mute controls and the internal speaker are selected.  any one any ideas please.

    Hopefully one of these steps should solve the problem.
    1. Remove the headphone.
        If you see red light in the headphone port, plug the headphone
        in and out of the port 5 or 6 times to flip the microswitch inside.
        Sound output may be stuck in the digital mode.
    2. Reset PRAM.  http://support.apple.com/kb/PH4405
    3. Reset SMC.     http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
        Choose the method for:

        Under Mute any of the boxes checked? If so, uncheck it.

    Hi,
    Yes you can configue and also the check the configuration of backup controller
    for all of your connected Access-points.
    Go To > Wireless > Access Points > Global Configuration 
    on this pages check your backup controller configuration in High Availability Section.
    and go through the below guide for detail understanding

  • Need help reg labview control *.ctl

    What are the uses of creating labview controls i.e. *.ctl and how to do  this?
    thanks in advance.

    The simple answer as ssk pointed out is that it will save you lots of time using a custom control because when you need to modify it, you only need to change the master. 
    To create one, simpy select under the Files menu, New, and browse to the bottom to select Custom Control.  See attached image.

  • How to create a cluster with a User control (.ctl) programatically using VI scripting?

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    It seems that you hit the Post button before you had a chance to use the body of the message to give more detail on what you are trying to do.
    Perhaps you can post whatever VI you have so far and also the user control you are trying to use.

  • Allow to erase values under the input-check of the ALV Grid Control

    Hi,<br />
    in my ALV Grid I do have a cell which automatically checks the values entered by the user. When the user does not enter the values belonging to the DDIC Domain Value Range of the data element, the cell is rendered with a red border and an ALV error message comes up telling the user to enter the correct values from the F4 help.
    In general, this is really great, but in case the user needs to erase the value, this automatical ALV Grid error message keeps popping up asking him to enter at least one value from the value range.
    (I assume this is due to the fact that the Domain value range does not contain the value 'empty'.)
    <br />
    I would like to keep the functionality of checking the entered value but want to switch off the error message in case nothing was entered. How can I achive this?
    <br /> <br />
    This is what I did so far: <br />
    1. Upon initializing ALV Grid, I define the field catalog like this: <br />
    ls_fieldcat-fieldname = 'REACTION'.                       "#EC NOTEXT <br />
      ls_fieldcat-edit       = abap_true. <br />
      ls_fieldcat-coltext   = 'Reaction'.                       "#EC NOTEXT <br />
      ls_fieldcat-outputlen = '8'.                              "#EC NOTEXT  <br />
    <br />
    * This forces the user to set at least one value; not allowing him to delete it!! <br />
      ls_fieldcat-ref_table = 'CRMS_ES_FOREIGN_ATTRIBUTE'.      "#EC NOTEXT <br />
      ls_fieldcat-ref_field =  'REACTION'. <br />
      ls_fieldcat-key = abap_true. <br />
    <br />
      ls_fieldcat-checktable = '!'. <br />
      ls_fieldcat-f4availabl  = 'X'. "shows the handle for F4 help <br />
      ls_fieldcat-col_id = 7.
    <br />
    (I would assume here that the ls_fieldcat - structure would allow an additional field which allows empty values, but I could not find one!) <br />
    <br />
    2. For my ALV Grid instance, I am registering the F4 during initialization:<br />
    call method gr_fkt_grid->register_f4_for_fields <br />
            exporting <br />
              it_f4 = lt_f4. <br />
    <br />
          ls_f4-fieldname  = 'REACTION'.   "EC SYNTCHAR <br />
          ls_f4-register   = abap_true. <br />
          insert ls_f4 into table lt_f4. <br />
          call method gr_fkt_grid->register_f4_for_fields <br />
            exporting <br />
              it_f4 = lt_f4. <br />
    <br /> <br />
    3. Then I am setting the handler while initializing: <br />
          set handler lr_grid_event_receiver->handle_f4 <br />
          for all instances. <br />
    <br /> <br />
    4. I also have checking methods in PAI for the ALV cells, but they do not apply in this case, <br />
        since ALV itself performs this check described above. I cannot see a chance for <br />
        interfering myself in PAI. <br />
    <br />
    Does anyone have an idea how I could prevent the ALV Grid of bringing up the message "Enter a valid value" and <br />
    allowing to delete the cell content while keeping its checks in case the user enters a wrong value? <br />
    <br />
    Thank you very much,<br />
    regards,<br />
    Konrad<br />

    Hi Konrad,
    Inside the handler method for event DATA_CHANGED,  always suppress the error log by calling method activate_display_protocol with dialog = ''.
    Whenever u need error log call  method display_protocol based on ok_code(sy-ucomm).
    Ex:
    method data_changed.  " Handler method for event 'DATA_CHANGED'
    *Suppressing error log
        call method g_o_grid->activate_display_protocol        "  Always suppress error log when grid is changed
          exporting
            i_dialog = ''.
        if er_data_changed->mt_protocol[] is not initial.
          if ok_code = 'BACK' or ok_code = 'SAVE'.      "  Based  on  ok_code display error log
    *Display error log
            call method er_data_changed->display_protocol.
          endif.
        endif.
      endmethod.                    "data_changed
    Might solve ur problem
    Thanks,

  • Since my last software update the auto rotation on both my ipad air and my iphone 5c won't work. I have tried everything, including; checking the auto-lock - it isn't on lock. I've checked the settings in the Control Centre and they're as they should be.

    Since my last update the auto rotation on both my ipad &amp; my iphone has stopped working. I've done all the usual stuff to correct it but no joy. I've reset, rebooted, turned off then back on, checked all settings including those for the side switch and everything is as it should be except the rotation still doesn't work. There are no open apps, movies or videos that could be locking the screen so I am now totally stumped.
    Any suggestions please?

    The fact that gs.apple.com was in your host file to begin with is an indicator that your computer was used to jailbreak or hack an iOS device at some point in the past. You can not get help here for a hacked or jailbroken device. If your phone was hacked or jailbroken, Apple won't touch it.
    RecBoot and Tinyumbrella are hacking tools.
    Google "iPhone DFU mode".
    Try restoring in DFU mode. If that doesn't fix it, make an appointment at the genius bar and see what Apple has to say about it.

  • How to check if two or more controls/i​ndicators have the same name/label in LabView?

    LabView does not show any rror if I name two controls with exactly the same name. It can be confusing. I am using LabView 6.1.

    Some people like the fact that you can name things the same. Some even want to be able to have two VIs with the same name in memory at the same time. (Scoping rules to follow in future LabVIEWs.) You can write a small program that lists out the names of all the controls and indicators in a VI using the VI server property nodes. Oh, OK I'll give you an example. (See attached)

  • LabView Control (.ctl) to VB Structure

    I created a control in LabView.  My LabView
    code writes data of that type to a binary file.  I want to read this
    data into a VB Structure.
    Can I do this programmatically,
    or do I need to manually create a corresponding structure?

    One end or the other will have to do some translation of the data. Are you saving clusters? If the data type is a simple type such as an integer or a double or an array of this type you should be able to read it directly. If it is a cluster than you will have to do some translation. Which side you do that on is up to you. Also, the write to binary VIs can place some header information (namely the array or string size) so you either have to not write this data or account for it in your VB program if you will perform the translation on that end.

  • Check box symbol in Tree control

    Hi,
    I have built a code for using checkbox symbol in tree function and stuck to get the selected check box item. 
    Actually my requirement is to to use tree with check box and do the multiple selection and get the selected item list. I have completed till the Check box selection but not able to get the all selected item list.
    I have attached the code for your reference.
    Please let me know hot to do this, If any one knows .
    Thanks in advance
     

    Sorry I didn't get here sooner, here is some example code I made a while ago that supports listboxes, MCLB, and Tree selections.  It also supports nested levels to the tree, select all or select none, and selecting deselecting parent items, and partial selection of parents if children selection are mixed.  Oh and it supports disabling items so the user can't change the selected state.

  • Unable to check logfiles in Application Server Control

    I use oc4j_extended with a seperate oc4j_home: java -jar "%OC4J_INSTAL%\oc4j.jar" -userThreads -verbosity 10 -config %OC4J_HOME%\config\server.xml
    This means I had to change some paths in server.xml.

    This doesn't happen when I run oc4j and ascontrol from my installation directory. Does anyone know what the problem might be?
    Marko.

    Another question on this subject: why does OC4J use paths
    like ../../home/jsp/lib/taglib/ and even
    ./../../j2ee/home/jsp/lib/taglib/ (both used to define
    global.tag.libraries in server.xml), when in this case >../jsp/lib/taglib would be sufficient?Another good question at that.
    The reason is that OC4J is distributed as both a standalone zip file, and as part of the broader OracleAS product.
    In the standalone case, we typically have one instance -- ie home.
    In the OracleAS case, you can and deploy applications to new instances. In this case, we use the same set of bits, but just different configuration files. So where you see references to paths such as ../../j2ee/home/ that allows the same config files to be utilized in both standalone and OracleAS environments, and lets us support home and other specific instances which get created.
    ../.. takes you back to the ORACLE_HOME directory.

  • Trace File -- Urgent

    Hi all,
    I am working oracle 9i in NT, my control file size is 5mb, i want to take a backup of my controlfile so i typed this command.
    ALTER DATABASE BACKUP CONTROLFILE TO 'E:\ORACLE|CONTROL.CTL';
    its working, but i check the path E:\oracle\control.ctl, its a binary file and it have same 5mb size, so i want to backup the control file in user readable format, so i typed this command
    ALTER DATABASE BACKUP CONTROLFILE TO TRACE
    after that oracle say database alted, but the trace file is not in my user_dump_dest floder, i set the pfile user_dump_dest='E:\oracle\udump'
    But also i cant get the trace file,
    Anyone kindly tell me, how can i get the user readable backup controlfile in my UDUMP,
    if any parameter set in pfile? kindly teel me its urgent
    cheers
    S.Senthil Kumar

    Hi,
    by default controlfile trace file should be generated in user_dump_dest:
    select c.value || '/' || lower(d.instance) || '_ora_' || ltrim(to_char(a.spid,'fm99999')) || '.trc'
    from v$process a, v$session b, v$parameter c, v$thread d
    where a.addr = b.paddr
    and b.sid = (select sid from v$mystat where rownum=1)
    and c.name = 'user_dump_dest';
    if it doesn't work for any reason you can use:
    alter database backup controlfile to trace as '/path/trace_file_name';
    -- Tomek
